Asal is purely a half backed commercial Masala with an half century old, cliched story line. Here Saran once again fails to impress the cinema lovers with proper story line, even though he filmed it in very stylish way.
The story goes like this…
Ajith (Senior) is a big shot in illegal weapon trading. He has 3 sons and among them Ajith (Junior) is born for illegal wife. In an in-fight for capturing Sr Ajith’s assets and business empire, his own sons Sampath and Rajiv Krishna kills him. But unfortunately they caught in villain’s den in Mumbai. Ajith Jr flies there for their rescue. After safely escaped from villan’s hand with the help of Ajith, Sampath and Rajiv Krishna tries to kill him to get the properties fully.
How Ajith escapes from their target and closed their chapter is the remaining portion of the story.
Bhavana, Sameera, Prabhu and Yuhi Sethu’s part are adding pep to the main story.
Ajith done his role with perfectly and his looks are more stylish than in Billa. Senior Ajith is really done well and his mannerisms are real treat to Thala fans.
Among the heroines, Bavana is having more scope and done her job well. Sameera is not impressive both in appearance as well as performance.
Sampath, rajive Krishna and Suresh (another typical Tamil baddie who turned as a good man in the last reel!!) are the three main villains and done their part well and professional manner.
Prabhu is just appearing in a guest role which hasn’t any impact in the story.
The camera work is good, but Baradwaj’s music is not impressive, except the ‘Tottodaing…’ song.
Saran’s picturisation is excellent but the main drawback is lack of a solid story. It seems that in most of the scenes the director just leaves Ajith to walk here and there in the name of style. But we have experienced this kind of scenes in Billa itself!
Verdict: Run of the mill!
Rating : 4.5/10

asal is a fine movie. it is a better one when compared to recent releases in tamil industry. sivaji films surely pack up lot of money.
Thala is no.1 in worst heroes. Movie already removed from udhayam and kasi theatre that too before 25 days. Very bad. Try to give good songs in movie then only ajith can survive….
thala is no 1 asal superrrrrrrrr hit
Superb.THALA done a great job.THALA is a real don .
hay its really nice.. actually movie.. looks like a french movie… where movie goes silently, without good screen play… ajith done great work…. but slack in music… thts it… its a FRENCH FRIES…
utter flop of the decade
stylish movie …. please ask vijay to comb his hair like this
this is a worst movie i had ever seen.plz dont waste money
this asal film is the copy of english films mainly (police story,transpoter,chineses film)if u have any doubt watch this movies and see
Im basically not a fan to any hero but i used to watch all movie. I saw Vettaikaran 1st show and Aasal 1st show but Vettaikaran is the best with songs and good screenplay and Vijay’s usual stuff, Aasal is one of the worst movie for ajith, hopefully next is gautham menon movie so he can rely on him. Ajith should look for some good story line, i heard ajith is a co-director and co-story writer in this movie, ajith should seriously stop this and concentrate only on acting if he has to win
Im basically VIKRAM fan guys but anyway i used to watch all movie. I saw Vettaikaran 1st show and Aasal 1st show but comparatively Aasal is good movie dont spam bad stuff even if ur not a fan of him just see as a movie and enjoy.. This movie is basically for his fans and good package too.. watcha and post ur review. When a film flops accept it and if it hits that must be appreciated. Good Movie Mr AjithKumar(Thala). Can be watched once worth ur money. For his fans they will watch n number of times.
